It hasn’t been long since the last update, but since than Ace of Spades 0.60 Beta has been released with some new file formats and a bunch of cool new features.

I was hoping to add more stuff in this release, but kind of had to push it out due to the amount of messages I’ve received about bugs with 1.4.8 because of new INI formats and lack of support for new 0.60 features such as windowed mode and mouse sensitivity.

Well Ace of Spades 0.58 is out now so it’s time to release an update for Spadille.  It’s been updated to support the shotgun and new sounds files.  Admin tools have also been added allowing server admins to easy manage the new ban lists and admin lists.  One particular feature is banlist syncing, where the global blacklist (seen here) is appended to the existing banlist.  Any subsequent syncs will appropriately add any new bans, as well as remove any bans which have been removed from the global blacklist.

A follow-up release will be out in due time to take advantage of even more of the new features in 0.58, so stay tuned.
